Wednesday, Google unveiled a blacklist for its "Instant" search engine that blocks up the search of words and phrases involving what the company considers "violence, hate, or pornography."

Thus for instance, if you type "new" and then a space, it gives you results for "New York Times." But in case, you’re typing «fuck" or even "fuc," it gives you nothing. However, having typed "fuck" and – in old school fashion, you’ll get usual result for ‘old school fashion’ search.

Switzerland's National Council passed two new resolutions which have not been signed into the law yet to ban violent video games. Once these bills become laws franchises like Grand Theft Auto, God of War, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare will be in the black list.

YouTube has introduced a new optional feature to allow parents set up a video mode that will prevent their offsprings from seeing an abusive and obscene content on the website.

The Safety Mode allows users to filter potentially objectionable content from YouTube that might not be nixed under its community guidelines, such as war coverage or a newsworthy video that contains violence. Besides, parents also can filter obscene user comments.
